Though the temperatures outside were freezing, it was warm and toasty inside of the Glasgow Elks Lodge on Jan. 13 for the sixth annual Elks Chili Cookoff. A total of nine teams braved the cold weather to bring their cooking supplies, ingredients and spices to win the coveted first place trophy.
After local judges tasted all of the offerings, first place was awarded to Kevin Taylor, second place was awarded to Ruth Waarvick and Kim Enkerud and third place was awarded to Brandylee Loran.
After the judging was completed, the public had the opportunity to get out of the cold and warm their bodies with the variety of tasteful chili available made by all nine teams. The public also had the opportunity to vote for their favorite to be awarded the People's Choice. At the end of the tasting, Erica Murphy, of Glasgow, was awarded the sought-after title.
The Glasgow Elks appreciates everyone, contestants, judges, bar staff and the public, for braving the cold temperatures to support the event and the Elks Lodge.
